Rivers, Rafting & Relaxing

Day One

From the Valley we’ll head west to Lake Havasu, home of the original London Bridge, relocated from England. Learn how the Bridge ended up in the desert of Arizona and wander through unique one-of-a-kind shops. Choose from a variety of diverse restaurants for lunch on your own before we continue to Laughlin, Nevada and check-in to the Aquarius Casino Hotel. This evening, relax and enjoy a sunset dinner cruise on the Colorado River aboard the Grand Celebration. Take in the breathtaking river views as you dine on a freshly prepared gourmet meal. Enjoy Caesar Salad, dinner rolls, marble cake for dessert, and the choice of one entrée:
Breast of Chicken Marsala Tender breast of chicken, smothered with mushrooms and marsala wine sauce, served with garden wild rice and vegetable medley.

The rest of the evening is yours to explore Laughlin. Stroll the River Walk, visit Don Laughlin’s Classic Car Museum, or try your hand with Lady Luck.

Day Two

Today, get ready for adventure with a rafting trip through the spectacular Black Canyon – the natural gorge of the Colorado River! You’ll begin at the base of the Hoover Dam, offering an amazing perspective to this incredible piece of construction, standing as tall as a 60-story building. Climb aboard a motor-assisted inflatable raft and share in the history, wildlife and beauty of this otherwise inaccessible area. Keep an eye out for Desert Bighorn Sheep, Osprey and Great Blue Heron, and have an opportunity to enjoy the calm, clear waters along the shore. This evening, relax at the hotel, enjoy one of many restaurants for dinner on your own, or see if luck is on your side in the Bingo Room or at the blackjack table.

Day Three

After breakfast this morning we’ll bid farewell to Laughlin and head to Oatman, AZ. Best known for its many burros who wander the streets, Oatman was once a rough and tumble gold mining town. Today, enjoy the charming shops and gold rush memorabilia and be sure to take advantage of a photo op with an Oatman burro! On the way back to the Valley, we’ll visit historic downtown Kingman, known as the “heart of historic route 66”. There are a wide variety of restaurants including Mexican food, breweries, coffee shops and old school diners to choose from for lunch on your own before returning home.
